Will Johnson: Breaking News

MRI comes back clean

Johnson's (knee) MRI came back negative Monday, and he's healthy headed into the offseason, Theo Mackie of The Arizona Republic reports. Johnson had to leave Sunday's regular-season finale against the Rams with a knee injury, but he's avoided anything notable injury-wise and should have a normal offseason. The second-round rookie appeared in 12 regular-season games for Arizona, making 10 starts, and wrapped up his 2025 campaign with 37 tackles (27 solo), 10 pass breakups and one forced fumble. He should return as a starting cornerback in 2026.

Won't return due to knee injury

Johnson (knee) has been ruled out for the rest of Sunday's game against the Rams, Josh Weinfuss of ESPN.com reports. With Johnson done for the day, Elijah Jones is in line to see more snaps at outside cornerback opposite Denzel Burke. Johnson did not record a tackle prior to his exit.

Green light to play Week 17

Johnson (thumb/chest) is active for Sunday's game against the Bengals, Darren Urban of the Cardinals' official site reports. Johnson was limited in all three practices during Week 17 prep due to thumb and chest injuries, but the rookie second-rounder has been cleared to play Sunday after going through pregame warmups. Johnson has logged 14 tackles (nine solo) and four pass defenses over his last four games.
